no, read the specs in your manual it will be something like .004 or something, that number will be on a feeler gauge, if that one does not fit they are out of adjustment.

there are marks generally on the left side of the bike that you have to line up...
there will be double marks, a mark with a T beside it, and a mark with a F beside it

(at least that is how it is on a xr250)

some are listed and tdc top dead center and bdc bottom dead center

no you dont, but are you sure you got a metric feller gauge? those clearances are awful small. but you will have to get a bigger one, or go metric if for some wierd reason that is is in american measurements

dude, i cant see anything in the picture, you cant tell by looking at the feelers anyway, the measurements are so small, you have to read whats on them and i cant do that, what does it say on the case thing that holds them together?
